I think I am looking too much into it as well...but at the same time I don't. It's weird.

I don't see how you could take a picture of a band, crossing that road, and not EXPECT to be compared to the Beatles. You're a band....you're crossing theroad from their cover and they were a band. So the comparison is common sense.

I have no problem with fans or tourists doing it. It just seems odd.

Now....funny enough, if they had taken the picture for themselves and it wasn't some professional shot for a photoshoot, I'd have no problem with that lol. But the sheer fact that it was for publicity, is just bad taste.

yeah i hear ya ... and who is that original band anyway? the beetles? are they any good?

The Red Hot Chili Peppers remade that photo as well, but they put their own unique twist on it:
